Around sunrise on January 14, Dearest and I were awed by the most exquisite beauty. Every branch was individually flocked with sparkly snow. And as the sun rose, the light and shadows shifted to create ever new patterns. We both tried to capture a bit of the glory with our cameras, with rather disappointing results. The photos are pretty … but the reality was literally breathtaking.

IRELAND’S SHAME: St. Patrick weeps with us all. I googled “black and white snakes” and I think this is a King snake, which is telling. Who is your King, Ireland, Jesus or Satan? Black vs white, good vs evil. Whoa.

My parish church is so pretty. Because of my chemical hypersensitivities, I haven’t seen it in person in about 20 years, but Mama Buzz took pics when they were here.
I’m feeling a tad teary right now.
